FRIENDLY VISIT [1], THE (An Tiomcuairt). AKA and see "Callanan's Retreat," "Cooney's Hornpipe," "Smith's Hornpipe (1) (The)," "Tamony's Hornpipe." Irish, English; Hornpipe. G Major (Harker/Rafferty, Mitchell, O'Neill, Raven): A Major (Mulvihill). Standard tuning. AABB. The tune is played in A Major in County Donegal where it is very popular, although the key of 'G' is more common in sessions to accommodate instruments other than the fiddle. Reg Hall (1998) says the tune has had enough currency in Northumberland to be considered local, with origins perhaps in the Irish migrant labor attracted by opportunities in the Tyneside dockyards. Whether the Northumbrian adoption predates O'Neill's early 20th century publications is unknown at this time.
